A gorgeous spot (pardon the pun) to stop and rest a while, this waterfall on the River Dee in the Mar Lodge Estate National Nature Reserve. Be careful where the water runs fast and deep; check out a quiet spot if you fancy a wild swim!

Nice wee walk. The area belongs to the National Trust of Scotland, there is a big car park where you have to pay but you can by card, the toilet is clean. Nice waterfalls around, the path is easy.
